Welcome to LERA NJ Chapter!

The New Jersey Chapter of the Labor and Employment Relations Association (LERA) is a unique organization of professionals from New Jersey and contingent states who are interested in employment relations and human resource management. The chapter includes members from the management, labor, neutral (including arbitrators and mediators), government, and academic fields.

Meetings

The New Jersey Chapter holds several dinner meetings a year. NJLERA will hold most of its meetings in central New Jersey, where members listen to distinguished speakers and share their knowledge and experience. Most meetings begin at 5:30 PM.  We also partner with Rutgers’ School of Labor and Management Relations and Rutgers LERA for a program each December.
